INSERTS / RIDERS

Many people ask
us why these products are called inserts by some companies and riders by others,
when they seem to be the same product. In fact, they are the same product. The
reason for the different names is that inserts are inserted into to the top,
or bottom of slip-in frames. Riders are either bolted on to a steel frame, or
in the groove of a wood post, thus, riding on the sign.

Inserts are made
of Hardboard because it is a rigid and economical material, and because
it is easy to slide inserts in and out of our signs messages can be changed
often. Polystrene is a lightweight alternative to hardboard. However, this material will yellow depending on UV exposure. As a result, we do not recommend it in the desert areas.
